A friend and I spent 7 days at this resort on Manase Beach. If you have any respect for companion animals avoid this resort and Samoa. Although most of the meals were ok, some were pretty awful. The female chef insisted on putting a lot of chilli in the evening meals even after I asked for less to be used... More

A wonderful family break in authentic fales on a beautiful lagoon. Every tala spent here benefits the local community directly. The food is also excellent. I cannot understand the negative reviews as everyone was so open and honest and above all devout. Please be culturally sensitive here: this is a unique spot to be treasured. We would return in a...

Ok, truth be known I was quite apprehensive about staying in a beach fale - no windows, no walls, no ensuite - you get the picture! Now........ I can't stop raving about Vacations Beach Fales at Manase! It was so basic (exactly what you see in the pictures on their website) and that was the fantastic thing. The showers are... More

Positives: Very nice set up and there's a store right outside, which is handy. Many other resorts nearby. Go to Lagoto's, 3-4km down the road, for a great bar and restaurant. Jane's Beach Fales also has a beach bar about 100 metres down the beach from here as well. The local village had lots of free bananas hanging up by... More

We spent a week in October 2011 in a Beachfront fale at Vacations and had a wonderful holiday. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The fales, although basic, were more than adequate, clean and functional. To lay in bed and see the moon reflection on the ocean, hear the waves breaking on the shore and to feel the cool... More

Plenty of basic but nice food, Dinner and breakfast was included in thevery reasonable price. Biggest advantage is the Location, you step from your fale onto an extremely Beautiful Beach where good snorkeling... More

Manase Beach is the best beach...We loved swimming and snorkeling. This was our first experience in a fale. Theres are in good condition and beds off the floor with mossie nets. Cool breeze and shade from the palms. Toilets could have been cleaned more often though... Our daughter got sick though after the umu....and my husband and I got a... More

A lovely place to stay. We'd highly recommend it. Friendly staff. Good food. Excellent location. Enjoyed the Sunday umu after going to church down the road. Fales were perfect for us. Look straight out to sea. Fish around the coral great. Swam every day at least twice. Good having our own snorkels and masks. Nice to be elevated on beds... More

We had 5 wonderful days staying at Vacation Beach Fales. The staff and management were friendly, helpful, happy and relaxed so before you know it we were laid back and relaxed too. The food was great with plenty of changes daily, especially the Sunday traditional feast!! We had seven in our group with a mixture of age groups and there... More
